Vulnerability Overview

The Flynax Bridge plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.0. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their details like password. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change arbitrary user's passwords, including administrators, and leverage that to gain access to their account.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 2.2.1, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-620 (Unverified Password Change) When setting a new password for a user, the product does not require knowledge of the original password, or using another form of authentication.
